Eastwick, P. W.; Sparks, J.; Finkel, E. J.; Meza, E. M.; Adamkovič, M.; Adu, P.; Ai, T.; Akintola, A. A.; Al-Shawaf, L.; Apriliawati, D.; Arriaga, P.Ideal partner preferences (i.e., ratings of the desirability of attributes like attractiveness or intelligence) are the source of numerous foundational findings in the interdisciplinary literature on human mating. Recently, research on the predictive validity of ideal partner preference matching (i.e., Do people positively evaluate partners who match vs. mismatch their ideals?) has become mired in several probl...
Multi-region investigation of ‘man’ as default in attitudes
Phills, C. E.; Miller, J. K.; Buchanan, E. M.; Williams, A.; Meyers, C.; Brown, E. R.; Zickfeld, J.; Volsa, S.; Stieger, S.; Oberzaucher, E.; Mlakic, V.Previous research has studied the extent to which men are the default members of social groups in terms of memory, categorization, and stereotyping, but not attitudes which is critical because of attitudes’ relationship to behavior. Results from our survey (N > 5000) collected via a globally distributed laboratory network in over 40 regions demonstrated that attitudes toward Black people and politicians had a s...

Hall, B.; Schmidt, K.; Wagge, J.; Lewis, S. C.; Weissgerber, S. C.; Kiunke, F.; Pfuhl, G.; Stieger, S.; Tran, U. S.; Barzykowski, K.; Bogatyreva, N.According to the justified true belief (JTB) account of knowledge, people can truly know something only if they have a belief that is both justified and true (i.e., knowledge is JTB). This account was challenged by Gettier, who argued that JTB does not explain knowledge attributions in certain situations, later called “Gettier-type cases,” wherein protagonists are justified in believing something to be true, bu...
Tears evoke the intention to offer social support: A systematic investigation o...
Zickfeld, J. H.; Van de Ven; N.; Pich, O.; Schubert, T. W.; Berkessel, J. B.; Pizarro, J.; Bhushan, B.; Mateo, N. J.; Barbosa, S.; Sharman, L.Tearful crying is a ubiquitous and likely uniquely human phenomenon. Scholars have argued that emotional tears serve an attachment function: Tears are thought to act as a social glue by evoking social support intentions. Initial experimental studies supported this proposition across several methodologies, but these were conducted almost exclusively on participants from North America and Europe, resulting in lim...
